EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Carpenters companions of duty and beggar, on a construction site in the 15th century" takes us back to a bustling construction site during the Renaissance period. The French School artist skillfully captures the essence of companionship among craftsmen as they work diligently on their carpentry tasks. In this scene, we see carpenters engrossed in their duties, focused and determined. Their expertise is evident from the precision with which they handle their tools and materials. They stand side by side, sharing knowledge and supporting each other in their laborious endeavors. Amidst this industrious atmosphere stands a beggar - an unexpected presence amidst skilled artisans. This vagabond figure adds an intriguing contrast to the scene, reminding us that even amidst progress and productivity, there are those who struggle on society's fringes. Leonard de Selva's masterful photography transports us to a time long gone but still resonates with themes of craftsmanship, camaraderie, and social inequality. Through his lens, he captures not only the physicality of construction but also explores deeper human connections within these historical contexts. This print invites viewers to reflect upon our own modern-day notions of workmanship and societal dynamics. It serves as a poignant reminder that while progress may be made through collaboration and dedication, it is equally important to acknowledge those who may be left behind or forgotten along the way.
